Cozy fails to load next chapter

[grahamvh]

Bug/Feature description

This is a rare case I've experienced with cozy. vary rarely (I would guess around 1% of the time), when loading the next chapter in a book, it will fail to load the next chapter in one of three ways:

1. Cozy will stop playing and display a gstplayer error and be unable to play the book anymore until it's restarted. Output on console:

   15:56:58 [MainThread  ] [mediaplaye] [INFO ]  Loading new file for chapter.
   15:56:59 [MainThread  ] [gst_player] [INFO ]  Dispose

     return func(*args, **kwargs)

   (The ERRORS from a minute later are me trying to tell it to play the audiobook from cozy's interface after the failure)
2. Cozy will just restart the current chapter and not move onto the next chapter

   19:31:56 [MainThread  ] [mediaplaye] [INFO ]  Loading new file for chapter.
   /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/gi/overrides/GObject.py:493: Warning: ../gobject/gsignal.c:2777: instance '0xffff10072be0' has no handler with id '19163'
     return func(*args, **kwargs)
   19:31:56 [MainThread  ] [gst_player] [INFO ]  Dispose
   19:31:57 [MainThread  ] [power_mgr ] [INFO ]  Inhibited standby.
   

3. Cozy just exits without anything printed to the console. (Nothing in dmesg, so I don't think it was oomkilled.)

Steps to reproduce

Just normal listening to audiobooks. I can't reproduce this reliably. I see this more often on books with lots of short chapters.

System Information

• Operating System: PureOS 10
• Installation source: flatpak
• Version of cozy: current master (I saw this in 1.2.1 as well)

Trying to get gst debug information on this

[LSeelig]

I think this might be happening to me too.

Interestingly, I replicated this with the RPM, flatpak, and beta flatpak.

Sounds definitely like a bug, maybe a race condition?

[LSeelig]

I don't know, but I think it is desync. Earlier chapters seem to desync, and later ones don't play at all. The files work fine in other players
